your vehicle is moving.
Head Restraints
75F123
Head restraints are designed to help
reduce the risk of neck injuries in case of
an accident. Adjust the head restraint to
the position which places the center of the
head restraint closest to the top of your
ears. If this is not possible for very tall pas-
sengers, adjust the head restraint as high
as possible.Pull up the head restraint in order to adjust
the position upward.
Push in the release button and press
downward on the head restraint in order to
adjust the position downward.
To remove the head restraint, pull the head
restraint all the way up. Then push in the
release button and lift the head restraint
from the guide sleeve.
Replace the head restraint and reset it in
the original position before driving.
The rear seat head restraints may also be
adjusted.
Push in the release button and move the
head restraint to the desired position.
WARNING
All seatbacks should always be in a
fairly upright position when driving,
or safety belt effectiveness may be
reduced. Safety belts are designed to
offer maximum protection when seat-
backs are in the fully upright posi-
tion.

WARNING
 Never drive the vehicle with the
head restraints removed.
 Removed or improperly adjusted
head restraints can result in seri-
ous head and neck injuries in case
of a collision.
 Do not attempt to adjust the head
restraint while driving.

The cruise control pad is located on the
right side of the steering wheel.
1) Press the ON/OFF button to turn cruise
control on.
2) Accelerate to the speed you want.
3) Press the SET button and release it. An
indicator light on the instrument panel
cluster will come on to show you that
the cruise control is on. See “Cruise
Control Light” in this section.
4) Take your foot off the accelerator pedal.
Resuming a Set Speed
Suppose you set your cruise control at a
desired speed and then you apply the
brake pedal, or depress the clutch pedal if
you have a manual transmission. This, of
course, shuts off the cruise control. But
you do not need to reset it. Once you aregoing about 24 mph (39 km/h) or more,
you can tap the RESUME button.
You will go right back up to your chosen
speed and stay there.
If you hold in the RESUME button longer,
the vehicle will keep going faster until you
release the button or apply the brake
pedal. So unless you want to go faster, do
not hold in the RESUME button.
Increasing Speed While Using Cruise
Control
There are two ways to go to a higher
speed:
 Use the accelerator pedal to get to a
higher speed. Press the SET button,
then release the button and the acceler-
ator pedal. You will now cruise at the
higher speed.
 Press the RESUME button. Hold it there
until you get up to the speed you want,
and then release the button. To increase
your speed in very small amounts, tap
the RESUME button and then release it.
Each time you do this, your vehicle will
go about 1 mph (1.6 km/h) faster. The
accelerate feature will only work after
you turn on the cruise control by press-
ing the SET button.
Reducing Speed While Using Cruise
Control
There are two ways to reduce your speed
while using cruise control: Press the SET button until you reach the
lower speed you want, then release it.
 To slow down in very small amounts, tap
the SET button. Each time you do this,
you will go about 1 mph (1.6 km/h)
slower.
Passing Another Vehicle While Using
Cruise Control
Use the accelerator pedal to increase your
speed. When you take your foot off the
pedal, your vehicle will slow down to the
cruise control speed you set earlier.
Using Cruise Control on Hills
How well your cruise control will work on
hills depends upon your speed, load and
the steepness of the hills. When going up
steep hills, you may have to step on the
accelerator pedal to maintain your speed.
When going downhill, you may have to
brake or shift to a lower gear to keep your
speed down. Of course, applying the brake
pedal takes you out of cruise control. Many
drivers find this to be too much trouble and
do not use cruise control on steep hills.
Disengaging Cruise Control
There are two ways to turn off the cruise
control:
 Step lightly on the brake pedal, or
depress the clutch pedal, if you have a
manual transmission.
 Press the ON/OFF button on the cruise
control pad.

To use it, turn the ignition to ACC or ON,
push the cigarette lighter in all the way and
let go. When it’s ready, it will pop back out
by itself.
ClockThe time is displayed in the digital clock
when the ignition is on. The clock is
located in the center of the instrument
panel. There are three adjusting buttons
for the digital clock:
H (Hour):
To go forward one hour, press the “H” but-
ton once, with the ignition on. To go for-
ward more than one hour, press and hold
the button until the correct hour is reached.M (Minute):
To go forward one minute, press the “M”
button once, with the ignition on. To go for-
ward more than one minute, press and
hold the button until the correct minute is
reached.
S (Set):
To reset the time to the nearest hour, press
the “S” button.
For example, if this button is pressed while
the time is between 8:00 and 8:29, the dis-
play is set to 8:00. If this button is pressed
while the time is between 8:30 and 8:59,
the display is set to 9:00.
After disconnecting the battery or after
replacing the fuse, reset the clock.
WARNING
Don’t put papers or other flammable
items into your ashtrays. Hot ciga-
rettes or other smoking materials
could ignite them, causing a damag-
ing fire.
CAUTION
Don’t hold a cigarette lighter in with
your hand while it is heating. If you
do, it won’t be able to back away from
the heating element when it’s ready.
That can make it overheat, damaging
the lighter and the heating element.

Trip OdometerThe trip odometer can record the number
of kilometers or miles traveled for up to two
trips.
The trip odometer button is located in the
lower right area of the speedometer.
There are two independent trip odometers,
which measure the distances your vehicle
has traveled since you last reset this func-
tion.
You can switch the trip odometer display
between Trip A and Trip B by pressing the
trip odometer button.
To reset each trip meter to zero, press and
hold the trip odometer button until it resets.
TachometerThe tachometer shows your engine speed
in revolutions per minute (rpm).
Safety Belt Reminder LightWhen the key is turned to ON, a chime will
come on for several seconds to remind
people to fasten their safety belts, unless
the driver’s safety belt is already buckled.
The safety belt light will also come on and
stay on until the driver’s safety belt is buck-
led.
If the driver’s belt is already buckled, nei-
ther the chime nor the light will come on.Safety Belt Reminder ToneIf your vehicle has this feature, a tone
(instead of a chime) will sound for several
seconds when the ignition is ON to remind
people to fasten their safety belts. The tone
will not sound if the driver’s safety belt is
fastened.
CAUTION
Keep track of your odometer reading
and check the maintenance schedule
regularly for required services.
Increased wear or damage to certain
parts can result from failure to per-
form required services at the proper
mileage intervals.
CAUTION
Do not operate the engine with the
tachometer in the red area, or engine
damage may occur. The damage
would not be covered by your war-
ranty.
